Greece’s main public sector trade union, Adedy, launched a call Friday for a two-day strike next month in protest against job lay-offs included in an economic overhaul demanded by the country’s creditors.
Adedy, in a statement, criticised the government’s “submission” to proposals from the European Union and International Monetary Fund that would “destroy the public sector and the welfare state”.
The strike action was called for September 18 and 19.
The Adedy union urged other professional sectors to join in next month’s planned strike action.
